Filter by:In this era of pharmaceutical and technological advancements, gaining insights into prevalent insulin administration practices under real-life conditions becomes pivotal for healthcare professionals. The investigators aim to explore insulin injection habits through an online survey among a broad, unselected group of participants with type 1 and type 2 diabetes undergoing daily prandial and/or basal insulin treatment. Eligible participants will access and complete the survey at their convenience after providing online informed consent within the study period
The goal of this clinical feasibility trial is to test the impact of differing completion rates of a face-to-face diabetes self-management education programme on patient-reported outcomes measuring self-care, diabetes distress and quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. What is the impact of differing completion rates of DSME programmes on ability to self-care (primary outcome), diabetes distress and health related quality of life in type 2 diabetes. Researchers will compare participants across four study groups (Group 1 will receive a full DSME programme, Group 2 will receive 60%, Group 3 will receive 10% and Group 4 will have delayed education) to see if patients who attend minimal aspects (10%) of diabetes self-management education programmes gain clinically significant improvements in ability to self-care compared to those who do not attend and if the nationally accepted 60 % completion rate is as effective as 100% completion. Participants will: - complete three validated patient reported outcome measures testing self care activities, diabetes distress and health related quality of life. - Attend structured diabetes self-management education of differing completion rates dependent on the group they have been allocated to. - repeat the same three patient reported outcome measures 2-4 months after intervention. For participants in group 4 this will be 3-4 months from baseline.
This study is designed as a blinded, multi-center, non-inferiority randomized controlled clinical trial. It aims to enroll hospitalized T1D diabetes patients, ensuring an equal distribution with a 1:1 ratio between the intervention and control groups. The trial is set to take place across three locations in China: Peking University People's Hospital, Hebei Provincial People's Hospital, and Xingtai People's Hospital. Before participating, all subjects are required to provide their consent by signing a written informed consent form. Within the framework of the trial, the intervention group will receive insulin dosage recommendations from AP-A, subject to approval by a physician, whereas the control group will be treated with insulin dosages according to the current clinical guidelines established by their physicians.
## Study Hypotheses Summary: **Primary Hypothesis:** Women with diabetes mellitus receiving the intervention will exhibit significantly lower levels of sugar indicators (FBS, HA1c, 2HPP) and lipid indicators (LDL, HDL, TG) compared to the placebo group. **Secondary Hypotheses:** 1. **Psychological Outcomes:** The intervention group will show significant reductions in stress, anxiety, and depression compared to the placebo group. 2. **Sexual Health Outcomes:** The intervention group will experience improvements in sexual performance, marital satisfaction, and quality of sexual life compared to the placebo group. 3. **Diabetes Management Outcomes:** The intervention group will demonstrate improvements in clinical symptoms of diabetes and anthropometric index compared to the placebo group. 4. **Medication Adherence:** The intervention will be well-received by women with diabetes mellitus of reproductive age, leading to improved medication adherence.
More than 40% of young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) also have overweight or obesity. Each of these diagnoses increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular events. GLP-1 analogues are anti-obesity medications that are cardioprotective in adults with type 2 diabetes, however evaluation of these agents in people with T1D has been limited to glycemic outcomes. Investigators aim to study the impact of GLP-1 analogue obesity treatment on markers of cardiometabolic risk in young adults with T1D and obesity.
The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IDegLira in type 2 diabetes who have failed premixed insulin therapy. The study plans to enroll 256 participants with inadequate glycemic control despite twice-daily subcutaneous injections of premixed insulin and metformin. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the premixed insulin dose optimization group (control group) or IDegLira once daily group, and the difference in change in glycated hemoglobin levels from baseline to 16 weeks of treatment will be assessed between the two groups.
Heart disease is a common and serious medical condition which causes nearly one in every three deaths worldwide every year. The factors which increase people's risk for heart disease are well-known, but there needs to be more support given to people to reduce their risk of heart disease. Pharmacists are front line primary healthcare providers who see patients more frequently than any other healthcare provider and can help people reduce their risk of heart disease. This research project aims to see whether a pharmacist-led intervention can help people reduce their risk of heart disease. The potential impact of this project is to empower people to understand how to reduce their risk of heart disease and reduce the burden of heart disease on the community.
This study is designed to test the feasibility and acceptability of behavioral approaches to reduce diabetes distress ("the expected burdens, concerns, fears, and threats that arise from the challenges of living with diabetes") in adults with type 1 diabetes. This is a pilot study, which will enroll a small group of participants to enroll and give feedback on their experience. At the study baseline, participants will be randomized to take part in one of two virtual, group-based interventions (the "Primary" intervention) utilizing either an emotions-focused or a problem-solving approach to reduce diabetes distress. After the intervention, participants will attend focus groups and fill out anonymous qualitative surveys to give feedback on their experience. Results of the pilot will inform and improve an upcoming research study of the same design.
This study is designed to compare two behavioral approaches to reduce diabetes distress ("the expected burdens, concerns, fears, and threats that arise from the challenges of living with diabetes") in adults with type 1 diabetes. At the study baseline, participants will be randomized to take part in one of two virtual, group-based interventions (the "Primary" intervention) utilizing either an emotions-focused or a problem-solving approach to reduce diabetes distress. After the initial intervention, participants will complete surveys to assess their response to the material. Participants who are determined to be "non-responders" (i.e., the Primary intervention was not effective) will be re-randomized to one of two "Supplementary" interventions, which will include individualized sessions to learn and/or practice strategies related to either the psychological or problem-solving approach.
We will recruit 300 patients with psoriasis from Yueyang Hospital of Integrative Medicine, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who will not be currently diagnosed with diabetes but will have been identified as high-risk individuals based on the developed risk assessment model. Based on doctor's treatment opinions and patient preferences, participants will be divided into two groups in a 1:1 ratio: a Western medicine group and a TCM comprehensive treatment group. Patients in the Western medicine group will receive treatment according to guidelines. Patients in the TCM comprehensive treatment group will be treated according to the guidelines and will additionally receive Taodan granules (to be taken daily during the treatment period after brewing the granules with lukewarm water in the morning and evening) and fish oil (1g, taken orally twice daily). Patients in the TCM comprehensive treatment group will be required to complete at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week under the supervision of a physician. The patients will be treated for 16 weeks and followed up for 24 weeks to see if the treatment prevents the development of diabetes or insulin resistance.
